He was a lecturer and examiner at the Victorian College of Pharmacy from 1920 to 1953.

This scholarship is awarded to a commencing or continuing student in the Bachelor of Pharmacy (Honours)/Master of Pharmacy degree, on the basis of academic achievement, personal circumstances, low income and leadership potential.

He completed his traineeship under his father, and went on to start his own pharmacy in East Brunswick. Later, he joined forces with other Monash graduates to purchase pharmacies in Broadmeadows, Essendon and Ripponlea.
